Default Del Sol Cage Options

I am currently building up my 93 del slo and was looking for some information on cage options. This car will mostly see sunday cruise time but I do plan on taking it to the track. I don't get out there much but when I do I would like to be able to participate and run it as hard I can without worrying about getting kicked off for safety issues like no cage. This car will not be auto x but will see the drag strip sometimes. My biggest want/need out of the cage is the ability to keep my rear window functionality and targa top. The car will be shooting for 600whp but I believe with enough seat time and without dyno racing it should be capable of 10.99 or greater after lots of practice and seat time which means it will need an approved cage.

I am doing my reading on cages but still much to learn as to exactly which style is required for these time's limits as it seems they are slightly different per track?

I am at the point where it would be best to get this towed to a fab shop and have it done now rather than later as most of the interior etc is out or easily removed. I would prefer to have it done and done right so going forward I am not limited.

Thanks for your time, information & patience.

As far as I've seen I'm the only one that hasn't gone through the glass or through the rear firewall. I retained full functioning rear window. I built this 3 years ago and since then I have cut out the halo and A pillars as I didn't like the fitment.

I'm also looking for a cage with the window functionality. Did the cage make it to the rear towers? I don't think so, is it?

I don't recall the rule book saying anything about having to go back to the rear shock towers.

Ah, this is for Drag Racing of course. I'm looking for extra chassis stiffnes for circuit/trackdays.
